How did I use this with my students?
My Year 10 German class and I went on a trip to the Barossa Valley and to Adelaide earlier this year. We all made sure that we had downloaded Instagram on our mobiles and were signed up prior to going and had checked out which hashtags were available. We decided on the hashtag #chsdeutschcamp.
Every photo that was taken on the camp included the tag #chsdeutschcamp in the comments so that fellow camp-goers, students and teachers back at school, as well as tech savvy parents could check out what we were getting up to.
